Answer: According to Beatty, society got so overpopulated, so sensitive to insult, and so concerned with pleasure, that things which created divisions became so unwelcome as to be dangerous to social order itself. The startling point of Beatty's explanation is that censorship started with the people, not the government (although the government stepped in later in accordance with the people's wishes). Most people stopped reading books long before they were ever burned. In Fahrenheit 451, society evolved into Bradbury's dystopia after the population dramatically increased and technology improved. ... Eventually, the population stopped reading and preferred to consume mindless entertainment. The government capitalized on the population's ignorance by censoring literature altogether. He's the head honcho fireman, but he knows more about books than anyone else. He burns these texts with a fiery vengeance (wink wink), but he spends half his time quoting from them. ...

Answer:
He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs."
Explanation:
An understatement is a figure of speech that consists of intentionally representing something less important or smaller than it really is. This is what Swift uses when he suggests that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs." The author employs this figure of speech to catch the readers' attention and to criticize Irish society and its attitude toward the condition of poor farmers and laborers who can not feed their children due to the high rent they have to pay to their landowners. In order to improve the poor's economic situation, they'd better sell their children off as food to feed the wealthy.
A fable is a short narrative that generally has animals in it that act just like humans would, or tell story of legendary people and exploits. An example would be the Lion King. A fair tale is a story that is usually used for children. They describe legendary deeds and creatures and use mythical creatures in them such as elves, fairies and trolls. An example would be the Brother’s Grimm.
